Inside the Gourmet Guide

Emma Dreams of Stars

Like the waters of the Minanogawa river, that flows by the crest of the Tsukubane mountain, is accumulated and finishes in an abyss, my secret love has also become a void of deep melancholy. Emperor Yozei (898-949). Very clever, very subtle- even when her words are very direct. [b]Kan Takahama[/b] tackles a wide variety of delicate subjects in this collection of short stories including a lovers' pact, bar room chat, mermaids and child pornography. She does so with a robust yet delicate grace in her artwork that moves along with the strong scripts to enhance and entrance the reader.

Monokuro Kinderbook

Japan während der Edo-Periode... Im Bezirk Maruyama in Nagasaki begegnen sich eine berühmte Kurtisane und ein schwer kranker Mann - der Beginn einer romantisch-dramatischen Liebesgeschichte vor der Kulisse eines ebenso verzaubernden wie verwirrenden Gesellschaftsbild der Zeit. Kan Takahama nutzt den Titel des fünften Aktes eines Kabuki-Theaterstücks namens "Keisei Yamato Zoushi" für ihr Werk um das Leben und Lieben einer Kurtisane im historischen Japan. Sie lässt sich inspirieren vom Schicksal zweier Liebender, die nicht zusammenkommen durften und tragisch endeten, bis sie als Schmetterlinge wiedergeboren wurden und frei und glücklich über einem Blumenfeld schweben konnten. Lebendig, rasant, realistisch und humorvoll nimmt Takahama den Gedanken von Liebe und Freiheit auf und erzählt in kräftigen Bildern eine Geschichte mit hohem Unterhaltungswert.
